What does UMA-Urine Micro Albumin measure?
The UMA-Urine Micro Albumin test measures tiny amounts of albumin, a blood protein, in urine. Normally the kidneys keep albumin in the blood. When small amounts appear in urine it can be an early sign of kidney damage. The specific marker measured depends on the test your doctor has ordered. A blood sample is typically drawn from a vein in the arm and processed through NABL-accredited laboratory equipment. Results are compared against established reference ranges for your age and gender.
What do the results of UMA-Urine Micro Albumin mean?
Your doctor will interpret the result in the context of your overall health picture. A mildly abnormal value may just need a repeat test in a few weeks to confirm whether it is a temporary fluctuation or a persistent finding. Significantly abnormal values may trigger further investigation, medication, or referral to a specialist.
